Abstract Deforestation and drought are among the greatest environmental pressures on the Amazon rainforest, possibly destabilizing the forest-climate system. Deforestation in the Amazon reduces rainfall regionally, while this deforestation itself has been reported to be facilitated by droughts. Here we quantify the interactions between drought and deforestation spatially across the Amazon during the early 21st century. First, we relate observed fluctuations in deforestation rates to dry-season intensity; ...

The incidence of infectious diseases affecting the central nervous system (CNS) has been increasing over the last several years. Among the reasons for the expansion of these diseases and the appearance of new neuropathogens are globalization, global warming, and the increased proximity between humans and wild animals due to human activities such as deforestation. Neurotropism affecting normal brain function is shared by organisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Neuroinfections caused ...

The deaggregation rates of a relatively insoluble benzoic acid derivative and its soluble sodium salt were studied. Based on the postulate that the deaggregation rate follows a first-order process, equations were developed to measure the rates quantitatively. A spectrophotometric procedure, which is simple and convenient for use routinely, is described. The surface area of the aggregates at the final state was estimated from a correlation between the absorbance measurements and the surface area ...

Relative rates of dissolution and solubilities of three polymorphic forms of chloramphenicol palmitate in 35% tertiary butanol-water mixture and two polymorphs of mefenamic acid in dodecyl alcohol were measured. The thermodynamic relationships involving the transition of the metastable polymorphs to the stable one were examined. The heats of solution, enthalpy, entropy, free energy differences, and transition temperatures were calculated. The relative stability of the polymorphs in the dissolving ...

High levels of stress in the parenting domain can lead to parental burnout, a condition that has severe consequences for both parents and children. It is not yet clear, however, whether parental burnout varies by culture, and if so, why it might do so. In this study, we examined the prevalence of parental burnout in 42 countries (17,409 parents; 71% mothers; Mage = 39.20) and showed that the prevalence of parental burnout varies dramatically across countries. Analyses of cultural values revealed that ...

In Western countries, recent decades have witnessed a revolution toward gender equality. Inequalities have been greatly reduced in areas such as education or employment. Because inequalities lead to distress, this development has largely benefited women. One notable exception is the realm of parenting, which has remained rife with inequalities even in the most egalitarian countries. We hypothesized that experiencing inequality in parenting when one holds egalitarian values and raising a child in ...

ABSTRACT The aim of this work was to catalog the clinical and ecoepidemiological characteristics of melioidosis in Brazil. The clinical-epidemiological features of melioidosis in Ceará are similar to those in other regions where the disease is endemic. These findings support the inclusion of this Brazilian state as part of the zone of endemicity for melioidosis.
